Equity [Abstract] |
Shareholders' Equity | Shareholders’ Equity Preferred Stock Our Board of Directors is authorized to establish one or more series of preferred stock and to fix and determine the number and conditions of preferred shares, including dividend rates, redemption and/or conversion provisions, if any, preferences and voting rights. As of November 30, 2017, there was no preferred stock issued or outstanding. Common Stock We have 200,000,000 shares of authorized common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of which 47,281,035 were issued and outstanding at November 30, 2017. There were 92,817 deferred stock units (DSUs) outstanding at November 30, 2017. Each DSU represents one share of our common stock and all DSU grants have been made to non-employee members of our Board of Directors. DSUs do not have voting rights and can only be converted into common stock when the recipient ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors or a change in control of the Company occurs. During the fiscal year ended November 30, 2017, we released 22,545 DSUs as a result of two individuals leaving our Board of Directors.

In fiscal year 2017, we repurchased and retired 2.2 million shares of our common stock for $73.9 million. As of November 30, 2017, there is $220.0 million remaining under this current authorization.
